kakobrekla: feel free to hassle with them.
kakobrekla: yeah, accounting, nothing to do with finance
smickles: 'cause that's true
smickles: kakobrekla: suppose i tell them that it's an accounting service and not mention anything about bitcoin
kakobrekla: and that cant be free
Namworld: Oh, that was already taken care of.
kakobrekla: smickles they wont give ssl to bitcoin related services
smickles: wtf, startssl just gave me a timeout
jurov: i hereby recommend you all to stick it into orifice of your choice
Namworld: Not sure how he justify all those costs...
Namworld: Well I managed to get gigavps to remove me from skype by arguing against his paid upgrade.
jurov: lol, there's also spanking thread to each according to their taste.
kakobrekla: mircea_popescu where is that pissing on the devs thread urlpls
kakobrekla: i have a guy here that can make em for 10e or so
smickles: kakobrekla: what do you suggest then?
jurov: yes. then you just make other request and go another year
jurov: smickles, startssl? can't get much better than that
mircea_popescu: why do you think i don't ?
smickles: mircea_popescu: i thought you just didn't use ssl, so how would you know?
TomServo: I don't understand how the price is holding given the uncertainty surrounding the bug.
smickles: ug, why can't i tell this thing to use my self signed cert ?
mircea_popescu: ima give it a month or two and see.
mircea_popescu: and while they have somewhat humanly understandable trouble coming out with "We're idiots", nevertheless the message has landed fine and people are working at it.
mircea_popescu: anyway, from reviewing the summaries of ~15mb of public and private conversations re this bug i'm sort-of contented that people have mostly got it,
kakobrekla: lets take some other euqal block of 100
kakobrekla: lets not take what user specified
kakobrekla: cause they all got nice blocks of 100
mircea_popescu: basically... the current bug would have wiped us.
mircea_popescu: "So for a single database transaction which consists of all Bitcoin transactions in the block the number of locks required is O(N * log_b S). This number has no upper bound, it logaritmically increases with the size of blkindex.dat."
mircea_popescu: meanwhile, some guy has the following point :
smickles: oh, not here tho
mircea_popescu: "So please, lets just admit we aren't up to spec and have never been up to spec, and focus on getting there instead of pretending that "the world is after all perfect, if requiring a little adjustment" is a bastion of software engineering."
smickles: hmm, there hasn't been an order reported from gox in a while
kakobrekla: hehe they mention intrade
TomServo: I think things would be rather loose in that case.
dub: you'd be uptight too wearing a 30kg bar of silver in your ass
dub: yeah the batshit is strong in that one
TomServo: It seemed like he was making a concerted effort to appear as batshit insane as possible...quite strange.
mircea_popescu: something tells me by 2015 we will be all doing some diff chain and mostly we'll be saying "no, this is not bitcoin, no this is not associated with the weirdo bitcoin devs, the weirdo bitcoin talkshow hosts and the weirdo etc"
ray: yep, have you got your water filter yet? essential to remove the government drugs that make you docile
jcpham: he has a dedicated following of sheeple willing to do what he says
jcpham: dub is down playing this man
ray: Since you're talking about, Alex Jones thinks Max Kaiser is the creator of Bitcoin
jcpham: lives in fear and never leaves the house
dub: straps 3 ar15s to his penis before he leaves the house
dub: alex jones is teh face of libertardanism
mircea_popescu: how often do you see true 1:1 split ?
TomServo: Well, that's something I guess.
kakobrekla: the = to
kakobrekla: so far he has the balls the admit he has no clue
kakobrekla: like listening to a rock.
kakobrekla: lol now alex jones is talkin on bitcoin
jcpham: WH OWANTS TO SEE IT
deadweasel: time to punch out, adios fellas
deadweasel: i like the way you horse it
jborkl: I was referring to him eating out horses
deadweasel: yes, the horses are sick. so they go to the vet. the vet takes blood, sends it to our lab, we send the results to our pretty webUI
ThickAsThieves: funny now that everyones testing all the meat to see what animal dna is inside
deadweasel: well, alot of them have abscesses and whatnot. and cancer. and growths.
kakobrekla: yeah but not the riding or the fucking part.
deadweasel: unless you like lab results for horses, then you'll be ecstatic
deadweasel: i'm trying though.
deadweasel: yeah, simple rules don't fix things for idiots.
mircea_popescu: deadweasel : simple rule. have all terminals white on black. have all non-terminals black on white. problem solved.
deadweasel: crap, this is not a terminal
mircea_popescu: and for the record, i'm adding safeties to not have stale cache again. this one managed to get away!
mircea_popescu: say ty to dilligent user for me :)
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves i'm not sure there's a better source of all soviet woes in englush than stoljenitsn
smickles: all of the sudden there is an issue with the underlying toolkit i'm using
mircea_popescu: jurov oh i see the problem. the cache's sick.
deadweasel: no doubt. imagine that -- running for your lives into siberia.
mircea_popescu: the jsons are not sorted, could that give the impression the book is different ?
mircea_popescu: jurov i just went through s.dice, failed to see a difference ?
ThickAsThieves: i saw that one dw
deadweasel: so that's a pointer
deadweasel: Clearly they didn't like atheism.
ThickAsThieves: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2013/03/14/us_malware_catalogue_hacked/ The US government's online catalog of cyber-vulnerabilities has been taken offline – ironically, due to a software vulnerability.
ThickAsThieves: mp, is there anywhere i can read about this russian intellgence as a burden stuff?
jurov: S.DICE has much different order book data than on asset page
dub: ah nm, I think he's arguing against someone who thought the increasing BTC/USD was a good reason to buy AM at these prices
dub: I know mrb isnt an idiot, so can someone explain to me why AMs costs go up if BTC/USD does?
deadweasel: tried that route, it's a hard road
ThickAsThieves: we just dont associate with them
deadweasel: me too, ThickAsThieves
ThickAsThieves: and i had to kind of find a zen place to balance it all
mircea_popescu: 1970s, the soviets were going "great", thinking people were starting to suspect intelligence is a burden.
mircea_popescu: you know... we've seen this before.
mircea_popescu: heh. do you live in the us ?
ThickAsThieves: one theory i have is intelligence is a burden
ThickAsThieves: and if i were a psychiatrist i'm sure i'd be able to figure out why
mircea_popescu: one is language, the other is money.
mircea_popescu: basically my theory is that the sensate world is underpinned by two essences
mircea_popescu: yeah something like that.
ThickAsThieves: money is the currency of life/time
mircea_popescu: im just saying it's woefully inadequate in anything to do with money, or more generally value
mircea_popescu: understand, i'm not saying there's anything wrong with the "what keeps me out of pain is right" approach in general.
mircea_popescu: that's one theory.
ThickAsThieves: but ultimately what's right, it seems, is that which keeps us most adaptable as a species
ThickAsThieves: i'm gonna be careful cuz i'm, not quite the level of philospher/anthropologist you are
mircea_popescu: evolution forces species to be more like "right", for a natural definition of that term.
